Baguette Pizza 

Put a French twist on this Italian dish with this recipe that is sure to be a hit at the dinner table!

Prep time: 5 mins

Cook time: 20 mins

Total time: 25 mins

Servings: 15


– 1 French baguette

– 1/2 cup pizza sauce, or as needed

– 2/3 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

– 2 oz cooked and crumbled sausage 

– 2 oz mini pepperoni slices


Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). 

Split baguette in half lengthwise. Warm pizza sauce in a microwave-safe bowl until hot, about 45 seconds.

Spread pizza sauce on baguette, sprinkle on cheese, and scatter sausage and pepperoni on top as desired. Place pizza onto a baking tray.

Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is golden, about 18 minutes. (Optional step) Turn on the oven’s broiler, set a rack 6 inches below the heating element, and broil the pizza for a deeper color, 1 to 2 minutes.

Cut pizza crosswide into slices. Serve and enjoy. 

Cook’s Note: If you prefer, cut 16 crosswise slices of bread. Each slice can be a “round mini pizza” which can then be customized for each person’s preference.
